Did you know that and /w switch does some pretty cool stuff? The cool stuff it does is Specifies the warning level, an integer in the range 0 through 4. There is no space between the /W switch and the digit indicating the warning-level value. In the Roles Summary or Features Summary areas of the Server Manager main window, click either Remove Roles or Remove Features, depending on the software that you want to remove.
